I have seen 2 types of flashlight holders. The 2nd of the 2 below I purchased. I love the placement but it is just a simple interference fit. I have been in a couple moderate accidents and I can say from experience things in your car fly around. I remember an 89 Tbird rear mirror flying off...
I’m looking to get a pedal boat. I’m looking at a used one and the guy selling it says its about 5x8 and 125lbs. I’m trying to decide if I will be able to fit it in the back and strap it down somehow or if I should spend the time and money and rent a small trailer. I was thinking I might get...
To answer your question is it still worth that I would say no. I purchased an LE last December, I forget exactly what I paid but I believe it was about $2,500 under msrp. I love mine but that truck is probably a year old. Also, even more importantly mine sat so long on the lot the tires got...
I can't believe some people think a hemi gladiator isn't a good idea. The gladiator is already over priced for what it is as a utility vehicle. If you use this as a work truck you are crazy, but a Tacoma it's a way better deal. I have worked very hard and earned enough in my life to buy a new...
That fire extinguisher doesn't look like it is secured. I'm not being a hatred I promise but I was in a serious car accident once. I remember vividly how widely everything in my car flew around. My mirror flew off , stuff I had in the backseat hit the windshield etc. Someone in your backseat...
Well at least on a JL but I can’t see why this wouldn’t be possible on the JT.

I may try to figure out how to add a passive entry to the JT tailgate. With all this “work from home” time on my hands I’m...
There's a simple reason there is no auto up. It's the same reason there are no power seats, no ventilated seats etc, we all bought it and they made great margin on it. If the bronco comes out and has these features and kicks the crap out of wrangler and gladiator sales jeep will consider it...
Not sure if this is related to your issue but on my JK if I put the freedom panel on in my driveway which is sloped it would cause issues. It might be worth taking off the freedom panels and putting them back on while parked in a level spot. You probably want to get on a ladder and get some...
I attached a picture below. You can see that there is a protective film or wrap or something on the fender. It is a little hard to see but the edge of it has a water stain after the car wash so it stands out. I never noticed it until today.
It looks like a protective film. I never heard...
I had another experience that is probably of a related nature. I left my key in my truck by accident when I went into a store to go shopping. I used the app to remote start the truck from inside the store. It auto locks the doors. So it locked the key in the truck and started the truck. I...
One thing I am already starting to 2nd guess is no soft top that completely lowers. I’m in the north east so I have only had the freedom tops off once. I think I am going to miss having a true softop but overall I really love my truck. I had a 14 JLU before this. The only thing I true hate...
I saw a video of a guy online do it solo without a hoist. Has anyone taken there top off and more importantly put it back on with one person. No way I could have done it myself with my JLU. Watching the video I think I could get it off myself but I am not sure I want to try, no way I would...
I started a thread about a month ago about helping kids get in and out. You can look back to that but I think you are thinking more about younger kids. My wife used to keep a very mini foldable port a pottie in her car. Definitely comes in handy when kids are around the potty training age...
I have the same truck you noted above, the launch edition. I believe it comes with every option. I love it. What are they asking for it used. In NJ the launch edition was way over sticker and then came done a bunch. I believe I got mine about 5k under sticker. I believe I paid 56 and...
I have had my truck for about 2 months now. I think its gotten a lot of odd reactions. My neighbor who drives a BMW calls it an Iraqi war truck and thinks its stupid. He isn’t a “car guy” he just wants a status symbol. The parking attendants in my garage in NYC have said multiple times how...
Thanks for the feedback. It seems like getting a smaller camper is the best approach. I know there are a bunch of variables to consider but any recommendations on what is the largest size / tongue weight to keep things safe? If I keep it under 25 feet and 500 lbs on the tongue is that practical...
I want to take the kids on a short camping trip. I’m not an expert at towing but I have pulled an open car trailer a bunch of times so I’m comfortable driving with a trailer in tow but I’m far from an expert. I am considering renting a 29 foot trailer to get the little ones to a camp ground...
